Our favorite excursion in Tulum! - What a beautiful evening spent with Lilly (our fun and gracious host) and several very kind and interesting couples from around the world - US, Germany, London, Norway.. Excursions with local people cannot be beat - Lilly is fantastic. The meal we learned to make was so very flavorful and out of this world! Highly recommend.

AMAZING! - I went to LIly's class with my extended family. There were 9 of us and we ranged from 13-82yo. We all had an AMAZING time and the food was delicious! We all said it was one of the big highlights of our trip to Tulum. Lily is powerhouse of great energy and cooking technique. I can't imagine anyone could ever be in a bad mood when they are with her. I highly recommend taking a class with her.

10/10 recommend! Lily is wonderful! - Lily and her team were so welcoming and fun to cook with. We had a group of 9 and she made sure that we all got a chance to do something to help make the meal. We got to make soup, tortillas, quesadillas, salsa roja and guacamole. We really enjoyed ourselves and would recommend this to other travelers who visit Tulum!

Food great, atmosphere needs improvement - The experience itself was good. However, there was very little mezcal tasting, which is one thing we looked forward too. Also, there was nothing in the description that mentioned there would be cats and cat hair everywhere. There was also lots of dust and dirt in corners of the home.

Cancelled for no reason - We were supposed to cook Boxing Day. Unfortunately, it was cancelled for no reason just before the holidays. Very annoying for us.
